Particle identification in a segmented calorimeter. Numass test data, September 1991

Abstract

The ZEUS T60 uranium/scintillator calorimeter was the main detector in the NUMASS test run, which took place at CERN at the SPS facility in September 1991. Additional scintillators were embedded in the calorimeter for high precision measurement of the arrival time for hadronic particle. High energy pion beams were used to test the performance of the calorimeter and to measure the arrival time distribution for hadrons. The segmentation of the calorimeter makes it possible to measure different shower profiles in the detector which is then used to identify and discriminate against contamination in the pion beam of electrons and muons. This particle identification is described in this note.
